Current Draft Order

So if the season ended now, here's how the top of the draft will look. For teams with a tied record, the team that has the weaker strength of schedule (SoS) picks first of the tied teams. I think, that even though San Diego beat the Jets, they pick ahead of them because the draft is based on SoS and has no head to head component.

This will change of course as afternoon games finish and with next weeks games. In an absolute best (worst?) case scenario, we could get as high as 11th, if San Diego, Tampa and the Jets all won and Pitt lost (couldn't pass San Diego for 10th because they had an easier schedule.)

I'll have to look it up, but I don't think a 4th round pick would net you 6 spots. Seems to be too little. EDIT: The Pats moved from 31 to 25 at the cost of a 4th round. But higher in the draft, they get much more expensive. The Eagles moved from 15 to 12 at the cost of a 4th and a 6th. The browns moved from 4 to 3 and it cost them a 4th, 5th and 7th. And the big one, the Redskins moved from 6 to 2 and it cost them their 2nd last year and their next two firsts (a hefty price.)

If we do wind up drafting at 14, there's no way I'd trade that to get out of the first. At that position, we should be looking for a big time impact player. In fact, I'd be looking to trade the #3 to move up into the top 10 if possible. That's how bad we need that defensive stud.

Thing with a trade back is try to get a 2nd and 1st round next year (which seems to be a very good draft class with the Juniors going back to school ( CJ Mosely , Anthony Barr , Louis Nix , Matt Elam (not confirmed but leaning towards staying I read))) or something like that

and this is a pretty deep draft , but not really a stud in the draft( at least to me) unless Jarvis Jones or Teo slips ... then yeah try to move up
